Groundwater and Solute Transport modeling is a sub discipline of environmental sciences with unique needs. Modeling has long utilized 3D simulations, but the ability to visualize and animate the results has lagged far behind the simulation technology. Earth Volumetric Studio and EnterVol offer professional level presentation tools worthy of the current state-of-the-art in modeling.

Visualization of the output from a Groundwater Vistas MODFLOW and MT3D99 simulation of a large industrial complex in the central valley area of California. This site, with highly channelized flow, clearly shows the path by which the groundwater contamination will eventually reach the municipal water wells.

This visualization was performed by C Tech under subcontract on a joint IT Group / Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory project.
